Update: I was unfortunately not aware of Shamus Young's severe criticism of Fallout 3 available here to link in the original piece and I regret that. It dovetails rather nicely with what I've written and it's much better executed than my piece. I strongly recommend anyone...

Strangers Wrath seems interesting. I like the Western theme, but so far very little platforming and a lot of shooting/fighting - a thing which makes me dislike most modern 3d platformers. I'll see how it goes on from here.

It was good and fun, but waaaaay too short and the plot was absolute shit. Like, Halo has never really been the pinnacle of amazing stories or storytelling, but this is an all-time low._________________

Recently beat Bioshock, Mafia, and Mafia 2. Making a concerted effort to get through my backlog while I actually have time to do so. Now I'm working on Arkham City, as well as Driver San Francisco and Tropico 4._________________

I just started the last mission of XCOM, even though I think I'm not commanding a super strong squad. I have:

- Col. Fiona Campbell, Scotland - An expert sniper
- Col. Katie Wilson, UK - An extremely badass psi-assault chick "The Volunteer"
- Col. Kwasi Kuumba, Nigeria - A really good medic who has been on 90% of all missions since acquiring him as a Captain.
- Col. Ari Meir, Israel - my most recently promoted colonel. Good at suppression, I guess.
- Maj. Semeynova, Russia - A heavy who is new to the team (picked her up in Russia just a few missions ago, but she's gifted, so she's coming)
- Maj. Victor Remy, Russia - a relatively inexperienced assault guy who is replacing Shotsy Matsuda who died a few months ago. She wasn't very special anyway.

So my heavy could be a really weak spot. I just never found one who i was very succesful with until her. But oh well. I saved before starting. And I'm willing to make sacrifices.
